This appliance does not contain CFCs. The refrigerant circuit contains R600a (HC).
Appliances with Isobutane (R600a): isobutane is a natural gas without environmental impact, but is flammable.
Therefore, make sure the refrigerant circuit pipes are not damaged, especially when emptying the refrigerant circuit.
WARNING: Do not damage the appliance
refrigerant circuit pipes.
WARNING: Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.

WARNING: Do not use or place electrical devices inside the appliance compartments if they are not of the type expressly authorised by the Manufacturer.
WARNING: Ice makers and/or water dispensers not directly connected to the water supply must be filled with potable water only.
WARNING: Automatic ice-makers and/or water dispensers must be connected to a water supply that delivers potable water only, with mains water pressure between 0.17 and 0.81 MPa (1.7 and 8.1 bar).
Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans and do not place or use gasoline or other flammable materials in or near the appliance.
Do not swallow the contents (non-toxic) of the ice packs (provided with some models). Do not eat ice cubes or ice lollies immediately after taking them out of the freezer since they may cause cold burns.
For products designed to use an air filter inside an accessible fan cover, the filter must always be in position when the refrigerator is in function.
Do not store glass containers with liquids in
the freezer compartment since they may break. Do not obstruct the fan (if included) with food
items. After placing the food check that the door of
Damaged gaskets must be replaced as soon as possible.
Use the refrigerator compartment only for storing fresh food and the freezer compartment only for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food and making ice cubes.
Avoid storingunwrappedfood in direct contact with internal surfaces of the refrigerator or freezer compartments.
Appliances could have special compartments (Fresh Food Compartment, Zero Degree Box,...). Unless differently specified in the specific booklet
C-Pentane is used as blowing agent in the insulation foam and it is a flammable gas.
The most appropriate compartments of the appliance where specific types of food are to be stored, taking into account different temperature distribution in different compartments in the appliance, are as follows:
- Refrigerator compartment:
1) Upper area of the refrigerator compartment & door - temperature zone: Store tropical fruit, cans, drinks, eggs, sauces, pickles, butter, jam
2) Middle area of the refrigerator compartment ­cool zone: Store cheese, milk, dairy food, deli food, yoghurt
3) Lower area of the refrigerator compartment
- coldest zone: Store cold cuts, desserts, meat and fish, cheesecake, fresh pasta, sour cream, pesto/salsa, home-cooked food, pastry cream, pudding and cream cheese
4) Fruit & vegetable drawer at the bottom of the refrigerator compartment: Store vegetables and fruits (excluding tropical fruits)
5) Chiller compartment: Only store meat and fish in the coldest drawer
- Freezer compartment: 4 star zone (****) compartment is suitable for
freezing foodstuffs from ambient temperature and for storing frozen food as the temperature is evenly distributed throughout the entire compartment. Purchased frozen food has the storage expiration date stated on the packaging. This date takes into account the type of food being stored and therefore this date should be respected. Fresh food should be stored for the following time periods: 1-3 months for cheese, shellfish, ice cream, ham/sausage, milk, fresh liquids; 4 months for steak or chops (beef, lamb, pork); 6 months for butter or margarine, poultry (chicken, turkey); 8-12 months for fruits (except citrus), roast meat (beef, pork, lamb), vegetables. Expiration dates on the packaging of foods in the 2-star zone must be respected.
To avoid food contamination, please observe the following:
– Opening the door for long periods can cause a significant increase of the temperature in the compartments of the appliance.
Regularly clean surfaces that may come into contact with food and accessible drainage systems.
– Clean water tanks if they have not been used for 48 h; flush the water system connected to a water supply if water has not been drawn for 5 days.
– Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in the refrigerator, so that it does not come into contact with or drip onto other food.
– Two-star frozen food compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making ice cream and ice cubes.
– Do not freeze fresh food in one, two or three-star compartments.
– If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry, and leave the door open to prevent mould developing inside the appliance.

INSTALLATION

The appliance must be handled and installed by two or more persons - risk of injury. Use protective gloves to unpack and install - risk of cuts.
Installation, including water supply (if any), electrical connections and repairs must be carried out by a qualified technician. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically stated in the user manual. Keep children away from the installation site. After unpacking the appliance, make sure that it has not been damaged during transport. In the event of problems, contact the dealer or your nearest Aftersales Service. Once installed, packaging waste (plastic, styrofoam parts etc.) must be stored out of reach of children - risk of suffocation. The appliance must be disconnected from the power supply before any installation operation - risk of electric shock. During installation, make sure the appliance does not damage the power cable - risk of fire or electric shock. Only activate the appliance when the installation has been completed.
Be careful not to damage the floors (e.g. parquet) when moving the appliance. Install the appliance on a floor or support strong enough to take its weight and in a place suitable for its size and use. Make sure the appliance is not near a heat source and that the four feet are stable and resting on the floor, adjusting them as required, and check that the appliance is perfectly level using a spirit level. Wait at least two hours before switching the appliance on, to ensure that the refrigerant circuit is fully efficient.
WARNING: When positioning the appliance,
ensure the supply cord is not trapped or damaged.
WARNING: To avoid a hazard due to instability, positioning or fixing of the appliance must be done in accordance with the manufacturer instructions. It's forbidden to place the refrigerator in such way that the metal hose of gas stove, metal gas or water pipes, or electrical wires are in contact with the refrigerator back wall (condenser coil).
To guarantee adequate ventilation, leave a space on both sides and above the appliance. The distance between the rear of the appliance and the wall behind the appliance should be 50 mm, to avoid access to hot surfaces. A reduction of this space will increase the Energy consumption of product.
